    I installed Ubuntu Linux on a partition on my Windows machine. I would like to now regain that partition and to allow Windows to access the whole hard drive again. How do i go about doing this?

    Use a Boot CD/ "free partition program" and select 1028MB for example and select it as ntfs as format call it Data Disk and it will appear as an extra hard drive in my computer on xp/vista.

    disk manager in windows will allow you to format the partition as NTFS

    disk manage should allow you to delete it too and in some versions of windows you can extend your C: into it , - messing with C: is not advised if things go wrong you are dead inthe water
